Houlihan-Lawrence

Houlihan Lawrence was an exciting adventure. Helping clients sell their home or buying their first home was always a very rewarding process. Each sale was a unique one, very emotional and overwhelming.   I enjoyed overseeing my clients go through this process as I walked them through it one step at a time.  Making sure all proper paperwork was in place, contracts, COs, Inspections and negotiating the best price possible by looking at all comps (comparable properties).  I learned that buying and selling are extremely important acts that occur in life and must be handled as so.  My management was always extremely supportive and I could always count on them if needed.  The environement was very competitive but that would always push me even harder.   The hardest part of the job was fulfilling all criteria that each client expected and the most enjoyable was when I was able to fulfill all the criteria each client expected.

I worked here for over 4 years and was promoted several times. Originally a marketing coordinator for a single office, eventually senior editor for the corporate marketing department. Management saw potential and took chances, and genuinely care about their employees. I left in 2007 because of a decision to move to MA and changed my career, however it was Houlihan Lawrence that influenced me to create websites in the first place and I will always look fondly on my time there.

The hardest part of this job is knowing deals may not always close and fall through for variety of reasons.

when two offices combined  into one,there was tension between old sales people and new.  Many were helpful,but a few were just not nice,The new manager was a real pain,and did not like older  people.Several  good sales people left  He would   not give you desk time  unless  you made a certain  amount during the year or followed his criteria,even though we were supposed to be   independant  brokers.

A truly great place to work.  Everyone supports everyone else, management shares knowledge freely--I miss it!
We were all independent contractors so there is not any health insurance from the company but commission structure was very fair and competitive.
If I still lived in Rye, I'd still work there!

I wanted an environment that was more positive, enjoyable, happy, supportive.  There were some excellent agents, but overall the management was not great, and when there were issues, they didn't seem to know basic questions about coops, and they talked about you to other agents.  Not impressive.

Market leader with over 35% Market share in all of Westchester, Putnam and Dutchess Counties in New York.  We sell about a third of all homes north of Manhattan. Working with the latest technology and having over a hundred years in the business affirms our position.

I really enjoyed this company when the corporation was being run by the family. A global entity took over and it is no longer the place it used to be. Also, I have close to 20 years in the real estate sales business and I do not like the way the office manager runs this particular office.

While I appreciate my current role and teammates, I'm craving a more challenging position with visibility, and impact. While the people I work with are wonderful there seems to be little opportunity for professional and financial growth at my current job.
